Low Insertion Loss, High Power Handling, and Test Data: Why They Matter
Low Insertion Loss, High Power Handling, and Test Data: Why They Matter Millimeter-wave (MMW) systems often employ isolators to suppress standing waves and achieve optimal performance. Commercial isolators provide good isolation, typically more than 20 dB across full waveguide bands at lower frequencies (under about 85 GHz), and they also tend to have low port reflections. However, at MMW frequencies there is a great divide [...]
